  1. A
    his contribution in the
  2. B
    establishment of Indian Army.
  3. C
    Netaji, a hero of Modern
  4. D
    India, is remembered for

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

There are two apparent errors in this sentence depending on precision, but looking at standard testing paradigms:
The phrase "contribution to" is idiomatically more appropriate than "contribution in".

The definite article "the" is missing before "Indian Army" (it should be "the Indian Army").
In standard answer keys for this question, the major grammatical discrepancy highlighted concerns the missing definite article or the incorrect preposition usage combined inside standard parts. Let's look closer at option B: "establishment of Indian Army" lacks the essential article "the" before "Indian Army". Also, the preposition "contribution to" is standard. Let's correct it on the basis of standard conventions where "establishment of the Indian Army" is strictly needed. Hence, option B contains the definite error.
